Mixed Feelings..

Let me begin with the cons; Grand Junction/Mesa County has earned it's reputation fairly: METHa County. There is so much drug use here, it's unbearable. Everywhere you go you'll see a crackhead or an alcoholic. It also has one of thee highest suicide and divorce rates in the country, sad, isn't it? :/ It is HOT in the summers and COLD in the winters. There isn't a lot of things to do still, even though the city is growing rapidly. The pros: the fall is a beautiful time to be in Junction, whether you're strolling down main street in the evening or hanging at Corn Lake. It's fun. You will definitely get that 'home town' feel when you come. Grand Junction is the biggest city between Salt Lake and Denver, so I guess you could say it's a little in between! I would say it's a pretty okay place to raise a family, as I'm still being raised here. (I'm 16.) I mean there are the ghetto parts, but what city doesn't have those? Just stay out of there, too much gang violence..
